I have connected 2 monitors to my microsoft surface dock and my 3rd monitor using usb-c to hdmi, but i cant run 3 at the same time. why is this so? How to fix this?

As soon as I unplug one of the monitors the other 2 work, in any combination.

Hi Crest_Z

Please clarify this as i am using a dock to power two monitors, and today plugged a USB-C to HDMi direct from my Surface Pro 7 to the 3rd monitor and it doesn't work.

Thanks

Coe

You could get a wireless HDMI adapter and connect to that. I have 2 24 inch monitors at 1920x1200 off the dock snd connect to my 27” at 1920x1080 wirelessly off a Surface pro 6. And i have the surface itself.

Which wireless HDMI adaptor did you use? I have not had much luck.

I can confirm this configuration works with my Surface Book 2, however I have to reconfigure all my displays (order, orientation, and enable) every time I undock/dock or restart the laptop.

I tried 2, the Microsoft one was fuzzy. I tried a Netgear PTV3000 and that works much better.
